Lovers of the Broadway smash hit musical Hamilton, get ready.

We thought the Pulitzer Prize-winning, pop culture sensation couldn't get any better. And then we got the Hamilton Mix Tap, and it turned out we were wrong.

And if imitation is the best form of flattery, then this show just got an undeniably adorable compliment from comedian Alex Fossella.

For you see, Fossella has done the unimaginable (see what I did there?): he's cast an all-French-bulldog version of Hamilton. I mean, if you thought you loved Aaron Burr before, just wait until you see him with the cutest little smooshed-in face.


Fossella has been chronicling his journey from the beginning of the casting process, when he only had his Alexander Hamilton (the adorable Mr. Doodles) and a dream.

He made the call for other Frenchies to fill out his all-star cast:



And soon, the cast list was starting to grow.

Fossella managed to find the pooch with the right gravitas to portray George Washington:



And the perfect blend of sass and heart in his Angelica Schuyler:



As for Hamilton's wife (and *SPOILER* eventual widow), Eliza, Petunia was the obvious choice:



Rounding out the Schuyler sister trio as Peggy was this cutie:



Ok, so maybe we lied that the cast would be all French bulldogs. After all, you need a villain to portray King George. And what better nemesis is there for a fledgling nation of dogs than a hairless monarch cat:



"You'll be back..."

Next up is everyone's favorite Revolutionary spy, Hercules Mulligan:



And pulling double duty as Philip, the ill-fated eldest son of Alexander Hamilton, and John Laurens, a close ally of Hamilton, is this proud little guy:



You can't have your Alexander Hamilton without your Aaron Burr, of course:



And then there's famed Loyalist and Hamilton foe, Bishop Samuel Seabury:



It takes an extraordinary talent to step into the double role of Thomas Jefferson and the Marquis de Lafayette, but this fellow seems like he's got the chops:



With the cast now assembled, an accurate logo was essential:



Rehearsals have just gotten underway. And from the sound of it, there might already be some backstage drama:



We can't wait watch the rest of the production unfold. If nothing else, we at least have a legit storyline for Smash season 3 (please bring it back).

Let them be your star, mmkay?

U.S. Women's Olympic Hockey Team Captain Breaks Her Silence To Slam Trump After His Sexist Joke

Hilary Knight, the captain of the gold medal-winning U.S. women's Olympic hockey team, criticized President Donald Trump in remarks to reporters after Trump made headlines for what she described as a "distasteful" joke at her team's expense.

Most members of the U.S. men's ice hockey team joined Trump at the White House on Tuesday but their visit was dogged by controversy when Trump phoned them Sunday night to invite them to attend his State of the Union address and quipped that failing to invite the women as well might "get him impeached."

Patel flew to Italy on a taxpayer-funded FBI plane despite having repeatedly criticized his predecessors for such excursions throughout 2023 and 2024. But an FBI spokesperson claimed it was not a personal trip because Patel met with Italian law enforcement and the U.S. ambassador to Italy during his visit.

Guy Waiting For Luggage At Baggage Claim Mortified After His Undergarments Start Coming Out One At A Time

We've all heard the advice to "travel light," but packing only one sock for a flight might be taking it a bit far.

But in all actuality, TikToker @laysuperstar's brother, Hugh, did not only pack a singular sock for his trip, even if that's what the airport baggage claim would like you to believe.
